Worse and More of 1t.


WASHINGTON, April 20.-The repre-
seLtatives of large number of business
interests centering in Boston were
present in the rooms of the inter state
commission this morning and the,hesr-
ing of their arguments occupied the
greater part of the day. William H.
Lincoln, agent.of line of Trans-Atlan-
tic steamers, said, under oath, that the
whole business of Boston, both local
and export, was involved in this matter
OF a change in rates which the inter
state commerce bill brough; into effect.
Boston was the second port of the
country in the amount of exports and
imports. This trade has all been
built up on the basis of equality with
New York on rates.
New York advantage, in spite of this
equality, was such that the average rate
of ocean freight during the last season
has been from Id to l I'D in her favor
This question is of such importance
that he had called upon his people in
Liverpool TO delay the sailing of the
steamship which was about tosail, unit
the matter is settled. He knew that
other lines had done the same. The
through rate from Chicago to Liverpool,
to-day, was less than the local rate
from Chicago to Boston. Other COM
plants were of about the same nature.
Rhe Commissioners have no intimation
as to what their action may be.

LIKES THE CHORUS GIRLS.
j Judge Donahue Proposes They Shall
Have Their Rights.

NEW YORK, April 20.-Judge Dona-
hue, in the Supreme Court Chamber
to-day, listened to the argument >rela-
tive to the troubles and complications
of the American Opera Company, the
question being as to the continuance or
dissolution of the injunction granted
last week, restraining William Badger.
counsel for some of the chorus girls,
from proceeding with their suits in the
City Court, which are on the calendar
sfor Friday. M. II. Kinsley, of the firm
of Eaton & Lewis, and holder of eighty
shares in the company, contended that
the injunction should be continued, as
a receiver had been appointed to these
suits, and claims could be de-
termined upon his final accounting.
In opposition, it was argued
by Colonel Badger that the chorus
girls had waited long enough. They
were entitled 10 settlement andscould
not afford to delay.
Judge Donahue said: This court is
not going to erect a wall to prevent
these poor chorus girls, who are in need
of and want of money, from having
their rights determined Immediately.
Courts are for justice and not for in
Justice" In taking the papers, he in
timated that he would dissolve the in
junction and permit the cases to be
tried Friday.

Gladstone and the Irish.

LONDON. April 20.-Gladstone writes
81 attach very high value of impor-
lance to the manifestations now inces-
SAINT OF American as well as colonial
sympathy with the Irish people in the
crisis created by the careless, insulting
and insidious bill at present before
Parliament. Apart from the particular
and more or less formal acknowledge
ments, am. not of the opinion that 1t
will be proper or expedient for me to
take it upon myself to address any gan
eral communication to America on
this subject, which, however, l
noticed. and may again notice in Par
lament. Still, l am very anxious that
the people0of this country should have
the means of understanding how much
beyond the range of any sectional i'm
pulses, and how truly national
the movement in the United States has
become, and in this view I would re-
commend that an endeavor be
made to present some estimate
of the aggregate numbers of
persons by which the recent meetings
in America were attended; likewise,
especially the estimate of the numbers
of Governors, mayors, Senators, Repre-.
sentatives, clergymen and other official
or highly responsible persons by whom
such meetings were countenanced or
supported"

Queen Kapiolaui, of the
Hawaiian Kingdom,
ARRIVES AT SAN FRANCISCO
Nellie Vances Peculiar Case-The
National Game-To Blow Up
the Gar Etc.
A Live Queen.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 20. = Queen
Kapiolaui, of the Hawaiian kingdom
arrived this morning from Honolulu on
the steamer australia. She was accom-
panied by the Princess Lilinokaloli
and number of high officials of the

present at Queen Victoria's jubilee cele-
bration in London in June next. The
roy al party will remain here about a
week, when they will leave for Wash
ingtOn, to pay their respects to the
President and Mrs. Cleveland. After a
short stay at the capital they will pro-
coed TO New York, and thence to Lon
don. Before returning, Queen Kapio-
iaui will also visit the principal cities of
the world. She has neYef before been
outside her kingdom.
The steamer while coming up the
harbor. was boarded by representa-
tive of Port Collector Hodges Office,
who welcomed the queen to this coun-
| try on behalf OF the United States Gov
ernment. Her majesty replied: Il
| thank you for your court sy. | have
| always been anxious to visit this great
| country, and | have no doubt that my
stay here will be pleasant one" As
the australia steamed slowly past Fort
Point, she announced her arrival by
firing single gun. Immediately the
guns at the Fort Numbered out the
royal salute of twenty.One guns. In
passing Alcatraz. the royal salute was
repeated, and as the vessel swept down
the bay and passed the British corvette
Conquest, the British flag was dipped,
| the port holes opened, and another
royal salute of twenty-one guns
answered the thunders of Alca-
traz. Queen Kapiolaui appeared
on the deck in a black dress, plainly
trimmed with black serge, overcoat and
black velvet bonnet, set off with mauve-
colored feather tips. Her eyes are black
and her complexion is dark olive.
Her fare is of the distinct Hawaiian
type. She is 81 years of age, in stature
is short and stout, and has pleasant
countenance. Princess Lilinokalani
who accompanies Her Majesty, is the
] Kings sister and heiress apparent te
the Hawaiian throne. The Royal party

Salisbury SPEAKS

LONDON, April 20.-Lord Salisbury, IN

tbe Primrose League, at Albert Palace
the occasion being the sixth annlTer-
sayy OF the death of Beaconstield' sald
. hollow agitation carried on during
the Easter holidays by the opposition
had failsd, and that government stood
in Treiand facing a vast machine pro-

SSa;vad him when he attempted to prove
that his party's prospects were very
S-,,br The present Irish crimes bill
Ho95pId not compare IN stringency with
cSodatone's bill of 1881. Under
tbe latter measure, the people were
;rIDris0ned without trial. This could
nnf h. done under the present bill. The
nv of crime in Ireland did not
T,cean the suppression of liberty. The
nnIicamen. in art4sting Bill Sykes, did
1ot interfere with liberty; yet Glad
Utone condemned this crimes repression
hi The danger OF the present lay in
ootch words, Gladstone, who had
Snent his life in changing his opinions,
mentioned those who separated from
him in the tone father lectures his
children. He preached and almost
nrsyed for them, but it never occurred
70 Gladstone that perhaps they had
something to complain Of. They were
unaole 10 change their opinions in the
night Ike he could. Salisbury prophe-
sled that Gladstone would find it diff
cult 10 gather around him any new
recruits. His present adhereuts
had gone too far to recede.
What had Gladstone gained, asked the
Premier He had gained eighty six
very Devoted followers of Parnell who
had been charged with having approved
murder. and who had refu- ed or whose
friends had refused for him. to enter the
witness box and deny the charge, and
this course Gladstone approved.
Parnell had been assisted with funds
subscribed by men who advocated
murder. When q man was accused N
such a manner, it was not open to him
to put the accusation aside, with the
cOpjous use OF elegant vocabulary. his
friends had introduced into the House
OF Commons. He was bound to enter
the witness box and deny the charges
against MIN most solemnly. How could
Gladstone go before the country associ--
ated with men who refused to submit
such question to the Judgment sof an
English Jury. The speaker did not
believe IN Gladstone's horoscope. The
victory Gladstone obtained in 1880 was
Won By q food OF Misrepresentation
that could not be repeated. Consery-
atives we're now organized. The party
was powerful TO refute falsehood. This
condition OF the party was largely due
to the work of the Primrose League.
The present government would, when
it left Office, hand down unimpaired to
its successors the great trust the en-
pire had committed to their care.

of Los Angeles, California, who ran
away from her parents several weeks
ago, while the family was on visit to
friends. was yesterday discharged from
the insane department of the county

Physician Bluthard, who decided that
she had recovered from her recent
mental arrangement. Last month she
was sent to the Woman's Home on
Chestnut Street, for refuge, by the
police who found her wandering about
the streets. She had been obliged to
leave her hotel, owing to lack Of

tempted suicide by taxing Paris green,
She was then sent TO the County

CHICAGO, April 20 James G. Blaine,
accompanied by his wife and daughter,
arrived here this morning. He is much
improved in health.
CHICAGO, April 2O.-Blaine is looking
well and seems to have grown much
stouter than he was when last N Chi
cago. During the morning, United
States Senator Farwell, Congressman
Durham, and Chairman Jones of the
Illinois Republican State Central Com
mittee sent up their cards. and desired
to see Mr.. Blaine.
Walker Blaine met them in the TO-
tunda Of the hotel. and explained his
fathers need OF rest, and the callers
Withdrew.
Later in the day Blaine received a
number of personal friends, but posi-
lively declined to see reporters or to be
interviewed on any subject, political
or otherwise.
Emmons Blaine stated that lis father
would probably remain in Chicago sew
eral days. and perhaps a week. He
needed rest at present, after his long
journey, but tomorrow would quite
likely receive all who called upon him.
1t was announced to the sons of MIR.
Blaine that The bankers CT the city pro-
posed to give a banquet during their
fathers stay in Chicago, and would re-
quest from him some expression OF his
views on financial ana business prospects

The G.. A. R. in Iowa.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, April 20.-The parade
of the Grand Army of the Republic en-
campment was a big success, over
1000 men being in line, mostly
veterans. At the afternoon SESSION of
the encampment. reports OF officers
were received and referred to
committees. Several contests are
on hand, and are being actively can
vassed in the Hobbies, the leading ones
being on the choice of the next State
commander, the selection of the next
encamp&ent and on the pension ques-
ton. On the latter award, differ
ent resolutions were introduced. all of
which were referred. They condemn
the action of the President. Action on
al these matters will be taken to-mor-
row. On the pension question, Com
missioner McHenry spoke at length.
The action of the national committee
on pensions is fully understood by the
commander. There is quite counter
current also in favor of the Presidents
course. General Fairchild's order for
bidding posts to respond to the circular
issued last night is a subject of COM
menr, nearly all of which Is favorable.
